This may sound like a stupid question, but I am saying this because the Nissan Skyline R-34 is not considered exotic in the normal world, but rather in the tuner category with all the supped up Hondas and Toyotas. I know they are very rare in America, but I want your opinion on this. I'm not saying they are or they aren't, I'm neutral about it.

ill probly never see one, so i say yes

In my opinion, it is one of the only JDM cars that i would class as truely exotic (That, and the NSX, Mitsuroka Orochi and other Supercars from Japan), and even then, it is on the edge of between exotic and non exotic. I would definitely upload an R34 if i saw one though, i've only ever seen two in recent years (Both at car shows including a V-Spec II)...

IMO it's in the same boat with the Honda NSX.

So, are these ok for posting or what? Saw a nice couple yesterday. :)

I say no, they are extremely common in Australia (you are very unlikely to see less than 2 in one day)and just because cars are rare in some parts of the world doesn't make them exotic. Otherwise I could just post HSV's all day because they are very rare in America.

That's a good point.
I see a few every time I'm spotting. I still takepicutres but I've never uploaded. I wouldn't call them common though, but also not uncommon.

Yeah post them, that looks amazing!



True, but there is something else about the R34 that does make it widely regarded as exotic. I would wager that the same poll done for the HSV would not turn the same results. Also, remember, that argument that says just because a car is rare in some parts of the world doesn't make it exotic..it works both ways. Just because a car is common in some parts of the world doesn't make it unexotic.

These are very rare in the UK, I would see 30+ Aston's or Bentley's maybe even 10 Ferrari's and Lambo's for every GT-R. Is it exotic?....hmmmmm borderline, but why not when a M5 or plain Jane 911 is apparently exotic.
